For twenty‑five years I have worked exclusively with self‑portraits, following a strict conceptual protocol: the same subject, framing, lighting, monochrome principle and format. These monochrome self‑portraits, made without Photoshop, have become my signature. I see them as abstract, timeless portraits,  freed from anecdote.
